£345.95£259.95 (Save £86.00)
The fourth release in the Hebridean Series, matured for 26 years, offers a balanced profile of spice and sweetness, with vanilla, toffee, cinnamon pastries, and toasted malt notes. Bottled at 49.2% ABV, it stands apart from earlier releases in the series. Master Blender Julieann Fernandez notes that, unlike the fruity, floral character of younger expressions, this release features a darker, heavier sweetness with woodsmoke, caramelised sugar, and treacle toffee—an unexpected result from uncharred González Byass Oloroso Sherry casks.
Tasting Notes by Tobermory:
Nose: A burst of dark brown sugar fades to reveal fresh strawberries, vanilla fudge, candied ginger and dried sultanas.
Palate: A perfect balance of spicy and sweet; vanilla, toffee, walnuts and freshly baked cinnamon pastries intertwined with gentle oak and toasted malt.
Finish: Lingering woody finish with notes of chocolate covered hazelnuts.
